HAKAFA means "encirclement."
We are a congregation of people
who choose to have no building,
no board of directors,
and no fund-raising.
Our CIRCLE has been growing
for nearly 40 years.
But as we grow, our intimate,
caring, and welcoming
atmosphere remains.

New announcements are posted each Wednesday.

Celebrate Tu B'Shevat with Hakafa!
The Jewish New Year of the trees, Tu B’Shevat (pronounced Too BishVAHT), falls on Thursday, January 28 this year.
Join us for a creative, virtual Tu B’Shevat Community Seder immediately following the Shabbat service on Friday, January 29.
According to the Talmud, the 15th of the Hebrew month of Shevat is designated as the end of the period in which most of Israel’s yearly rain has fallen. This marks the time when trees have used up water from the previous year’s rainfall and have begun absorbing the water of the New Year. On Tu B’Shevat we honor the cycle of the trees, we sanctify the power of nature through our Tu B’Shevat Seder.
...coming soon!
